THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Farmer City is considering Resolution 2026-154 to award hotel/motel tax funds to the Farmer City Heritage Days Committee, including a grant plus coverage of event electrical expenses. The committee has submitted detailed 2026 actuals and 2027 projected budgets with significant spend on music, security, advertising, insurance, and on-site services. Event, production, security, and tourism-focused vendors can approach the committee and city about sponsorships, service packages, or multi-year agreements aligned with the requested city support.
Funding source is municipal hotel/motel tax dedicated to tourism and convention promotion; resolution language leaves exact grant and electrical amounts to be filled at adoption.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
